Nguồn gốc từ
, though likely a doodle, perhaps with reference to the fashionable “Yankee Doodle dandy” in the 18th-century lyrics of the song “Yankee Doodle”; the word is first attested in 1883 as a New York City slang term of contempt for a “fastidious man, fop”. If so, then related to Dudeldop, Dudendop (fool, dunce), Duddigegen.
